>July 4, 2013 – Cascadia Wall Installation
/in Environment /by Dean RichardsWe are currently building a Cascadia Green Wall system in Abbotsford at Straiton Mountain Estates. This new development is “A Community At Home With Nature” and the Cascadia system fits perfectly with the natural elements of the area.
Cascadia is built using Filtrexx® FilterSoxx™ wrapped with geogrid which provides a continuous wall system that is both robust and flexible.
Cascadia lends itself to adjust to topographical conditions and is able to follow natural curves in the landscape.
The first terrace is complete at 9 feet / 2.7 meters high.
